2. The Order
2.1 Scanlux Packaging is not liable for failure to complete an order due to unexpected events, such as a strike, lockout, material shortage, changes in legislation or similar circumstances beyond Scanlux Packaging’s control.
2.2 A written order confirmation is binding and the points detailed in this are part of the purchase.
3. Price

3.3 The confirmed price includes any possible packaging tax of the product, which, according to Scanlux Packaging’s best estimate, must be paid to The Danish Tax Agency. The Customer shall compensate Scanlux Packaging for any additional tax, including if new or increased taxes are introduced or if Scanlux Packaging has, contrary to expectations, underestimated the extent of the tax liability.
3.4 If Scanlux Packaging states a price as “including packaging tax”, this only means that any tax, which according to Scanlux Packaging’s best estimate must be paid to The Danish Tax Agency, is included in the price. The statement may also mean that no tax is included in the price because, in Scanlux Packaging’s best estimation, no tax is payable on the product. On request, Scanlux Packaging will provide information on the extent to which a price includes an actual amount of tax.
3.5 The products that Scanlux Packaging A/S sells will typically be covered by producer responsibility for packaging placed on the market in the EU.

Billing of such costs can be done retroactively.
